Plus500 has disclosed that on 31 December 2025, it granted Restricted Share Units (RSUs), Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) awards, and ordinary shares under its 2026 deferred bonus scheme. The grants were in line with prior years and relate to remuneration packages for the 2026 financial year. The awards were for Executive Directors, Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities (PDMRs), and selected employees across the Company and its subsidiaries.

So, according to the disclosure, the combined allocation totals 462,656 Plus500 ordinary shares. Based on the current valuation, the awards are approximately £16.9 million, or around USD 22.7 million. The grants form part of the Group’s share-based remuneration framework, which links a portion of compensation to equity instruments subject to vesting schedules and performance conditions.

Moreover, the RSU component includes 100,148 RSUs granted to certain PDMRs and/or their Persons Closely Associated (PCAs). Each RSU represents an unfunded and unsecured right to receive one ordinary share on the relevant settlement date, subject to the achievement of performance targets. In addition, 233,190 RSUs were to selected employees of Plus500 and its subsidiaries under similar terms and conditions.

Furthermore, under the Company’s 2026 LTIP, awards covering 277,594 ordinary shares were to Executive Directors and PDMRs and/or their PCAs. Vesting is ready for 31 December 2028, at which point Plus500 will disclose the number of shares that vest. The calculation of vested shares will be based on a reference price of 1,467 pence per ordinary share, adjusted for shareholder returns. Separately, 185,062 ordinary shares were allocated under the 2026 deferred bonus scheme, using the same reference price and adjustment methodology.

So, chief Executive Officer David Zruia and Chief Financial Officer Elad Even-Chen are the largest individual recipients under the plan. Each is ready to receive a total of 231,328 ordinary shares through a combination of LTIP awards and deferred bonus shares, with an estimated value of approximately USD 11.4 million per executive.
